Could it be the legendary menopause? It is impossible. If they had this ability, they would not have experienced such a long period of torture and forced confession. They would have committed suicide long ago. Why wait until now?

Lu Jinping immediately turned around and came to Lu Niang, dragged his chin, pinched her people hard, and called loudly.

Finally, Lu Niang slowly opened her eyes, looked at him weakly, and said, "Sir... I'm sorry, the stories I told just now... are all fabricated out of thin air... I can't tell you the truth, otherwise, even if we die... our family wouldn't have a good life... That person is so terrible, I... would rather die in your hands..."

"How did you take the poison?"

"That person gave us... After taking it, you must take antidote regularly, otherwise it will be poisonous. She will send a pigeon to detoxify us... The purpose is to prevent us from falling into your hands and being forced to confess... So, after we were caught by you, it exceeded the time we should take the medicine. My husband has died of poisonous... I took the medicine a little later than his time, so I can persist until now. But I am not long, and if you don't have to force confession, I can't live..."

Lu Jinping thought to himself that this man is so vicious and has such a wonderful plan, he actually knows that he must be prepared for this time. Therefore, he adopted this new method of taking poison and used regular detoxification to prevent these two people from falling into his hands. These two people knew that they were far better at dying in their hands than in that person, so they would definitely die of poison.

Lu Jinping sighed and said, "Actually, I don't want your lives at all. Because you two are just arresting me and are not going to take my life. I didn't expect you to be plotted against you, and you would rather die for him."

Lu Niang smiled sadly and said, "There is no way, this is fate... We will definitely not be able to fight him. Okay, I'm going to die, I have the last wish... I wonder if you can satisfy me by sir..."

"you say."

"Actually, I... really like you... really... I have heard of you many cases that solve... I am content to die by your side, so I hope you can... hold my hand and let me... hold your hand and die... Is it OK..."

Lu Jinping was not talking, picked up the dagger, cut off the rope tied to her arm, and untied it. Because he had previously tied her neck with ropes and his waist, untied one of her arms would not cause the other ropes on her body to loosen. However, Lu Jinping was still very cautious and put the dagger on her erect neck. The only thing he had untied was her forearm. Bend the forearm over so that she could hold her hand in front of her.

Lu Jinping stretched over and grabbed the back of her hand instead of letting her grab himself, so that he could get out in time.

A hint of comforting smile appeared on the corner of Lu Niang's mouth, and her palm moved gently, as if she wanted to feel the warmth under Lu Jinping's palm. She did not take any other action, but just let Lu Jinping hold it, looking at Lu Jinping with soft eyes, the glory of life in her eyes became increasingly faint, and finally, she slowly closed her eyes.

Lu Jinping let go of his hand, patted her cheek gently, and said, "I don't know how long you can live, but I really don't want you to die like this. Now, let God decide whether you can survive."

Lu Jinping used the dagger in his hand to cut a few strands of the rope that tied her feet, then placed the dagger at her feet and said, "I believe. You will get out of trouble through hard work. After you get out of trouble, I hope you can return to the top of the mountain as soon as possible to find the antidote. Instead of arresting me, you should know that since I can subdue you once, I can also subdue you a second time. So it is important to save your life quickly. I am sorry for your husband's death."

Lu Jinping stood up and walked forward without turning his head. He believed that once Lu Niang got out of trouble, she would immediately return to get the antidote and save her life, and would not spend precious time looking for him, so he left calmly.

"You wait for the Lord..."

Lu Jinping stopped and turned around and looked at Lu Niang.

Lu Niang gasped, her eyes flashed with gratitude, and said softly: "I..., I can only tell you that the person who entrusts us to catch you is a woman..., she covered her face with a gauze scarf and couldn't see her appearance..., but judging from her voice and physical appearance, she was not old. Moreover, there was a wind blowing her veil at that time, and I saw a...a black mole..., on the right corner of her mouth..., I can tell you, so much..., Thank you, let me have a chance to live..., I hope I can see you..."

Lu Jinping smiled. This information had gained a lot for him, although he still had no clear direction. But he also knew that speaking out was Lu Niang's greatest help to him. He turned around and walked into the woods quickly.

Lu Niang didn't chase after her, and she didn't know if she was out of trouble.

When Lu Jinping returned to his doorstep of Tongzhou City, the doorman was surprised and happy when he saw him. He was stunned for a moment before he ran around the yard like crazy and shouted: "Master is back, Master is back."

Only a few servants ran out and gathered happily by his side. After asking, I realized that most of the servants in the mansion went out to look for him. In all directions. After he disappeared the night before, Ye Qingqing rushed back and asked someone to search for him, and he had been looking for him along the river. He has not come back yet, and has not even had a sip of food or a sip of tea.

Lu Jinping quickly ordered his servants to go to the river to find Ye Qingqing and ask her to come back. At the same time, he ordered someone to go to the yamen to find Captain Xiong. When he learned that Captain Xiong also brought a large group of troops to the river to find Lu Jinping, the yamen only left Deputy Captain Jiang to guard the house.

Deputy Captain Jiang was extremely excited after coming. Lu Jinping asked him to send someone to inform Captain Xiong and wait for him to come back, and at the same time sent someone to the stream to see if the dead turtle and his wife were still there. It is estimated that Lu Niang will either die or leave. I wonder if the turtle's body is still there.

It was already night when Ye Qingqing was found.

When Ye Qingqing saw Lu Jinping, she rushed over and hugged her tightly, burst into tears, and slammed her fists while crying.

Lu Jinping quickly took her hand and said, "Are you crazy? What are you doing?"

Ye Qingqing cried like tears, her nose and saliva flew, and said whimper: "It's all my fault. I followed the Lord and asked them to capture you. I, I'm so useless, whimper..."

Lu Jinping hugged her and patted him gently on his shoulder and said, "You can't blame you for this, it was actually my intention. I saw that they had a purpose, so I deliberately sent you away so that they could take me away. Then I found out that the person who caught me was the turtle. The noble lady on the pleasure boat was his wife. They set up this trap to catch me. I used their negligence to counter them and tied them to the tree to force confession. Unfortunately, they took the poison in advance and failed to save them. The body was still tied to the tree. I have sent someone to find and carry their bodies back."

One day when Lu Jinping explained this, Ye Qingqing burst into tears and said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? I was so anxious. And what if you can't escape and lose your life? Then, I really don't want to live..."

When Lu Jinping saw her haggard appearance, he knew that she had been searching for her by the river all day and night. Even her voice was hoarse. He couldn't help but feel very distressed. He reached out to wipe off the tears from her face and said softly: "Silly girl, if I told you, wouldn't it be exposed? But I promise you that this kind of thing will not happen again in the future. Don't worry."

Ye Qingqing nodded vigorously, suddenly remembered something, and said to Lu Jinping: "Miss Yunzi takes her master and brother, and all the Tubo warriors are still looking for you by the river. They are looking for you on the other side of the river. I'm in a hurry to come back, but I haven't told her yet, send someone to call her back quickly."

Lu Jinping was both surprised and happy. Unexpectedly, Yunzi joined the ranks of searching for him. He hurriedly asked what was going on.

Ye Qingqing said: "I told the people in the yamen to look for you, but I couldn't find it after searching for you overnight. I was anxious. I thought that she was very skilled in martial arts and had many Tubo martial artists under her. Moreover, her master was the head of the four Vajra Guardians of Tubo, so she was even more amazing. With their help, I was afraid she would be more confident. So I went to find her. When she heard that you were being plundered, she was also very anxious and immediately went out. Everyone went out, including her master."

Lu Jinping quickly sent someone to the other side of the river to tell Yunzi and the others that he was back and there was no need to look for him.

As he was talking, Lu Jinming found that a little girl following Ye Qingqing looked familiar. Because it was dark, he could not see clearly. He carefully identified it. This was her newly acquired little maid Su Sanmei. Seeing that she was also haggard and her eyes were red, he hurriedly asked what was wrong? Ye Qingqing took Su Sanmei's hand and said, "After this girl knew that you fell into the river, she also went crazy looking for you with me, crying while looking for her. When you see her eyes were swollen, from yesterday to just now."

Su Sanmei lowered her head a little embarrassedly and did not dare to look at Lu Jinping.

Lu Jinping went over and patted her thin shoulders and said, "Sorry, I'm scared to investigate this case. Okay, thank you for your hard work, notify the kitchen to make a table of good dishes to reward everyone, and give the monthly payment double."

Suddenly, the servants around him cheered again. Only Su Sanmei shook her head gently. Lu Jinping asked a little strangely: "What? Don't you want double the amount of money?"

Su Sanmei whispered: "We are the master's servants, so it is natural to do these things. How can we double the money?"

When they heard this, the other servants said awkwardly that they should do it.

Lu Jinping smiled and said, "It is their duty to go to the army and fight, but they must also be rewarded if they win. Even if they do not win, march or complete the task smoothly, they must be rewarded according to their merits. This has nothing to do with whether they are responsible, so you can accept it with confidence. This is what I rewarded you with."

When the servant heard this, he cheered again, and Su Sanmei nodded with a smile. It will not be continued.
